IPCM Profile
IPC
Healthcare, Inc., formerly IPC The Hospitalist Company, Inc., provides
hospitalist medicine services in the United States. A hospitalist is a
physician who specializes in providing medical care to patients while
they are in the hospital. IPC Healthcare partners with hospitals and
healthcare systems to provide physicians and related medical services
in the inpatient facilities of these institutions. The company's
services include physician staffing and related management services,
billing and collections services, and consulting services to
healthcare providers. IPC Healthcare operates primarily in the United
States, with offices in North Hollywood, California, and Seattle,
Washington.
In November 2015, IPC Healthcare was acquired by
TeamHealth Holdings, a leading physician services organization, for
$1.6 billion. The acquisition allowed TeamHealth to expand its
physician services to include hospitalist medicine, which was a
strategic fit with its existing emergency medicine, anesthesia, and
ambulatory care services. The combined company now operates under the
TeamHealth name and serves approximately 3,400 acute and post-acute
facilities across the United States.
